When I run Software Updater on a virgin EL5 system, there is one package it

Missing Dependency: xen-libs = 3.0.3-25.el5 is needed by package xen

Any chance of getting this library included? (Preferably where it belongs in
the RH pile of stuff!)

If I had to bet, I'd say it is included, although I haven't bothered checking. If I were that betting man, I think you might have the same problem I've been noticing sporadically where I get two versions of a package installed at the same time (as if it's tried to update but forgotten to erase the old version) through some fault of Yum. e.g.

xen-3.0.3-25.el5
xen-3.0.3-28.el5

Then when it tries to update xen-libs, it won't be able to uninstall the old version because xen-3.0.3-25.el5 is installed and it's not allowed to remove the old xen-libs as a dependency.

See if you have multiple versions of Xen installed ("rpm -qa | grep xen"). Typically you'll see the new and old versions of xen, but only the old version of xen-libs. Delete the old xen (rpm -e xen-3.0.3-25.0.4.el5) and then "yum update xen-libs")
